Reporter Roche jailed for protecting source in Florida
Timothy Roche, a veteran investigative reporter and the first Florida journalist jailed for shielding a news source, has died at age 38 in St. Petersburg. He faced a lengthy sentence for his actions and became a symbol of press protections.
Roche obituary recalls controversial Stuart News reporter
Roche died Friday after strokes. He gained notoriety in the 1990s for reporting a case about Crystal McGrath, a beaten child. A judge sealed the mother’s rights order after Roche quoted parts of it. He served 18 days in jail for refusing to name his source and later worked for Time and the St. Petersburg Times.
